Texans Say “No” to HBO for Chance to Be on “Hard Knocks”

Pro Football Talk reports that the Texans are the latest team to say “no” to HBO for the chance to be the team to be on “Hard Knocks” this August.

According to John McClain of the Houston Chronicle, the Texans turned down an invitation to be on the show this year. As a team coming off their first playoff appearance in history and a playoff win over the Bengals with designs on more this season, it is easy to see why the Texans would be an appealing choice for the program.

No one from the Texans has commented on the report. On Twitter, McClain called Gary Kubiak “about as private a coach as you’ll find” by way of explaining why the Texans passed on the opportunity.
